if the alpha leak is true, then fear immunity is being removed from death wish, sweeping strikes is being lowered from 10 to 3 charges, the bonus damage is being removed from overpower, iron will will reduce duration of stun instead of give you a chance to resist it, fury warriors will dual wield 2-handers giving them enough burst to make up for the lack of MS, and improved rend is getting a buff!!!
KALGAN WTF ARE YOU DOING!?!?!? DON'T LET THEM DO THIS TO US, MS WARRIORS MUST CONTINUE TO PWN"

Blizzard has actually released a statement saying that they will ban anyone speaking of the WOTLK alpha leaks. (i can't find the post as my work blocks the site)
it may be harsh but blizzard has complete jurisdiction over what is posted on their site.
also if anyone was discovered to have datamined info from WOTLK files they can actually be sued because you agree to a confidentiality statement.
yeah it sucks but now you know not to post that info anymore.

i don't even know who you are >.>
anyways i didn't datamine anything, i don't even know how to. all i did was ask about what everyone else was saying on the warrior forums, and none of them got banned, so i don't understand why i did. was it talking about kalgan that pushed it over the top?
also, i think it's interesting that their reason for banning me was "other". it gives the impression that they couldn't think of a reason to ban me but they wanted to anyways. first i get banned from mmo-champion for asking why one of their top poster's comments had all been deleted, now this :(
you're all that's left for me wowhead because thottbot sucks D:

Just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean everyone isn't out to get you.
(Seriously though, it sounds like Blizzard is cracking down on leaks from the Alpha testing, and the other sites were playing CYA to keep Blizzard happy.)

Ask Blizzard. There isn't much we can do about it on the Wowhead forums. They have decided to ban people for posting Alpha information (which is under an NDA, so whoever posted it in the first place is technically breaking the law).
This is also not the place to discuss an issue with Blizzard.
